I have osteoarthritus and a growth on my spine and my doc says there is nothing that can be done. Won't prescribe me heavy duty meds due to the addictive nature of them and me so I have to deal with the pain myself and I can say it is bloody hard. I am in pain 24/7/365 and I only get 3 -4 hours sleep an night. Then after about 8-9 days I crash.

OUCH, I could not make it with out the med's. Sorry to hear your forced to just deal. I fully understand the 24/7 part. I find your Doctors view odd, mine wants to force new stuff on me all the time. I have to refuse those NEW ones all the time.

Now back to the Thread, just as KK says the default is the sales end one milla blimp before you hit Submit on an order.

I have been used a test patient for all sorts of meds and I am one of those that reacts to nearly everything. I have even gone in to manic mode a pushed my wife out of bed and had no knowledge of it at all, even to this day. That casued my wife some pain too which upset me even more.

yeah sorry for going OT.

Oh yeah move to Colorado, they legalized marijuana... apparently that's very good for handling pain. And I'm not being sarcastic either.

We have a company over here called GW Pharmaceuticals who make sativex an extact from marijuana but unfortunatly it is only prescribed to MS patients for is mucscle relaxing properties plus they have found certain combinations of Canabiods can reduce pain but as always politics and ignorence plays its part from being available to people who can beneifit from it. I do a lot of self medicating and I feel it is my god given right to be free of pain but the nanny state knows better. :)
